Plans shaping up for Summit's Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service

Summit’s 14th Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service will be held on Monday, Jan. 16, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Service projects, celebrations and commemorative speeches will be held in various locations in Summit.

Advance donations of items to be sorted the week before the Day of Service are very much needed. It will allow everyone to make the most of the service hour time generously given by the community's youth and adults. Join this group of people who are motivated by the spirit of Dr. King’s ideals to help one’s neighbors who are in need of economic and social justice, as well as a feeling of warm connection to community.

Youth and adults of all ages are welcome to join hand-in-hand to become more familiar with one another and to Live the Dream that Dr. King, Jr. articulated for all.
